I can appreciate this fear I’ve held dissolving and being replaced with a devotion to being real, human, and happy to be here.
Each room, the lights turned off. It’s habit—a faint closeness, my father’s lesson. I never told him God left them on all night for me.
I want to live in a way that shares my gratitude for my ancestors and the legacy they gave me. To honor them is to have guts, be bold, and dare to be both soft and strong.
It's five-year-old you, still here now with wisdom.
